WINNING MOVES

Here at Winning Moves, we love toys and games – but we love the environment more. That’s why we’re committed to reducing the amount of single-use plastic in all our products, and eliminating it from our packaging by the end of 2022. From ending the production of plastic film windows, to removing plastic bags and opting for paper and cardboard instead, we’re dedicated to bringing you hours of fun with none of the waste. Soon, the only plastics you’ll find in our games will be those designed to last and be played with for years to come.

Winning Moves is a games company. We make games, sell games and play games; international family favourite games like Top Trumps, Top Trumps Match & Quiz, Monopoly, Cluedo, Risk, Trivial Pursuit, Pass The Pigs and many many more.

Top Trumps is fondly remembered from its original heyday in the playgrounds of the 1970s and 1980s. Now, thanks to our team of Top Trumps specialists, the game is not only loved by nostalgic mums and dads but also children of all ages as their favourite subjects are brought to life! Everything from big brands including the likes of Marvel & Star Wars to our classic editions such as Dinosaurs & Baby Animals have been given the TT Treatment.
